Everything starts here: “More sweetness and participation …”

Summer promises that it will be terrible here, it all starts! On the day of the moving of the series, the distribution editors had the opportunity to talk to Elsa Lungwin, which played the role of Clotild from the beginning of the TF1 flagship soap.

For him, the opportunity to tell us about the intrigue of this summer and return to some evolution of his character after the start of his daily life. The least we can say that we will not get bored … confidentials!

Distribution: What happened in this cage, Clotild?

Elsa Lunghini: In fact, from the beginning, this is not a trouble. Clotilde thinks it will be fine. It has this to some extent the spirit of war, but with the heart. He wants to win as others. And with Castellmont, this is a bit of an institution.

They are very strong, so there is a real rivalry, stories between each other … the desire to prove that we are the best. When you are Armand, definitely: We are leaving, we are not afraid.

And then this is a special relationship with Teyssier …

Yes, at the time, he is in a state of weakness and Clotilde wants to turn a blind eye. There is almost a form of protection that is interesting because they are often in rivalry.

But they have known each other for a very long time, and there, there is another color among them, more tenderness, participation. This is what we wanted to play with Benjamin Baroshi: both of them brought more humanity. And then it is the fact that Thyster’s wife entrusted her with a mission, so Clotild gets her heart very.

There is also a desire for revenge on what Castelmont has gone through Rose?

Yes, of course. There is always this desire to protect the rose and revenge, frankly – through the kitchen, competition. Clotilde has a character, he will not let go, especially when it comes to his sister.

You have already experienced moving to the series …

Yes, I was there two years ago, for the train plot. True trouble, it’s one (laughs). Last year, no, I stayed in the castle. But this year, that’s pretty exception. I think this is the first time we stayed for so long.

We have more time, we make less sequence a day, so we can focus more on the game and beautiful pictures. And the decor is really impressive.

What most noted in the shot of this mountain?

Places! In the first week, we took one hour from AIX-Lax-Bains, surrounded by mountains. We were a kind of gap, it was very impressive. We have prepared outside, in the middle of the Christmas trees …

And then there are these open kitchens on which the laurel windows overlook the landscape. Frankly, he has a face! It is very aesthetic, very beautiful to see.

And the scenario uses this environment?

Yes, total. We make local products, we choose plants in nature … it is very integrated. We will not just come here for decoration. The team moving is hard, so there is a real desire to do something strong, amazing.

Is it a challenge for you to leave the institute?

No challenge, no. More breath. We are so accustomed to being in the same teams throughout the year … there, we change your rhythm, we will find it ourselves. More time has been transformed, talking to each other, creating links. Some young people get better, we share more. And it feels good in everyday life, where everything goes very fast.

Clotilde looks more calm today. Do you feel that?

Yes, completely. He met a younger man on him, who encounters many. And he puts a little water in his wine. Sometimes nature is galloping, but it develops. And it’s wonderful, it’s a desire to bring a little more sweetness to this very rigid, very main character. For him, cooking is vital.

If he loses competition, his life will come into force. So a little more humanity is important. And his relationship with the rose too helps this: they have moved from tension to a true love story in Sorali. Feels good.

You also had a plot with Cleo …

Yes, and this leads to the idea of becoming a host family. There is also a story with his young wife who wants a child. He, he doesn’t want it and it is no longer his age.

But someone is a welcome tool to reduce their couples and keep mothers while their own son is far away. She discovers the maternity ward that she began with Cleo.

Exactly, will we see him soon?

No idea! Frankly, we never know for a long time before, so I don’t know at all.

Five years in ITC, already! When we told you, at the time …

Ah no! Even when they called me for the first time, I thought I was doing a year. I said to myself: ‘It’s a good experience, I’m going to a year, then something else. ‘And then finally, I stayed. Friendship has been created, the character is very attractive and there are still many to study.

Every year it brings fate and alternation, new aspects … I have the opportunity to bring it tenderness, weakness, but also strength. He goes from one state to another, it is very attractive to the actor. The role is over, just like Benjamin Baroch elsewhere. It is interesting to play, especially in everyday life.
